Hi friend!! My name is Amanda O’Brennan and I’m a 34-year old wife and mama of four beautiful kiddos, and I live in Vancouver Island, B.C.

I didn’t used to be “crunchy” but in the last few years, I’ve started paying a lot more attention to what food I put in my body, and what products I put around and on my body.

I started noticing greys when I was a teenager. A few odd strays here and there. I always pulled them out.

My husband had been encouraging me to let it go grey for a few years! My hairdresser and others that I asked always told me that I was way too young to let my hair go grey. They told me it would make me look so much older.

I had my hairdresser add in some very very fine highlights and lowlights. Working to blend with what was coming in naturally at my root. She did this about two times before I just left it alone.

My hairdresser was super supportive once I made the choice and is very encouraging of the color and how it is growing in. I still see her for trims, deep conditioning treatments & toning.

WHAT SHADE OF EYEBROW LOOKS BEST ON YOU?

I go to the hair salon WAY less, and I no longer at all about when my next hair appointment is. I started playing with more braids! It is fun to see all the colors showing.

For SURE! I really associated myself as a bright redhead. I was that redhead girl and had so many comments about my red hair. I also associated my past red hair with my brand on social media. That was a difficult thing for me to let go of. But I think it was way harder for me than other people. 

Do you find that hair is really connected to emotions?
